I think someone tried to "fix" the quick start based on Robert's input 
and it got broken instead.

The quick start I downloaded on Oct 21 was fine and said:

$ wget http://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads/poky/poky-edison-6.0.tar.bz2

The one I get today from
http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/current/yocto-project-qs/yocto-project-qs.html 

does not work and says:

$ wget 
http://www.downloads.yoctoproject.org/releases/yocto/yocto-1.1/poky-edison-6.0.tar.bz2

If you lose the "www." it should work.
